This is my first data with GIMP and I would like to know how I remove an area of a photo and turn it clear and save it to a PNG?
In the attached photo you will see a fireplace, what I would like to do is to either lift the fireplace off the background. OR clear the background and just have the fireplace, then save it out as a PNG file.
I'm having trouble saving my gif as a truly clear background image... i continue to get a white background around the image... like a line stroke. This is most obvious when I save for the web using image ready, but not as bad when perform a I save as gif function (thought it still happens). And of course, you don't see the line till you insert the image in a colored background.
The problem is my file doesn't downsize as sharp when I manually change the file size or transform it.
Same thing happens when I use Illistrator. I'm wondering if it is an outdated filter or something?
Maybe I need to change my settings?
I have made an A4 Flyer (but, will cut to 5 A6 flyer). The background is yellow, but, I just want this to be clear. I'm stuck and can't seem to make it clear.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to save a tif file to gif and at the same time setting the white background transparent. I did this in Corel Photo Paint 11 with the following
Call PhotoPaint11App.CorelScript.FilterGIF(0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0) Call PhotoPaint11App.CorelScript.FileSave(gWebFolderMain & gMVID & "-NakkeO.gif", PHOTOPAINT.cdrFilter.cdrGIF, 0)
Now in Corel Photo Paint X5 this doesn't work any more. What have changed and what am I doing wrong. According to documentation it seems to be correct.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHow to crop a photo to remove the background? Or do I need to go through several of the general tutorials before I can follow a tutorial on cropping?
I found a bunch of cropping tutorials on YouTube, but they used a lot of advanced (to me) terms and seemed focused on difficult situations.
I have 30-40 photos that are of wooden figures cut on a band saw. They do not have highly irregular edges like hair or fuzz.
I am hoping for a tool that can automatically follow the outline and then let me make any minor adjustments that may be needed.
I'm completely new to Gimp, and have one task that I would like to complete. I'm a fiberartist and would like to replace the backgrounds in my photos with a gradient one.
I have managed to create a "gradient image", and have also tried to follow a PDF tutorial, and YouTube video. The dialog boxes didn't match and I wasn't successful. I tried finding "decompose" and "mask", but it may be the instructions weren't spot on.
I have downloaded Gimp 2.8

I have made an image which I am planning on using for my website's logo. Now it was a png at first but decided to go for a .gif in the end.
Yet when i save the image even though the layers I want to save only take up a very top part of my image (the other layers are there to template my website so I know how it looks)....
Because the image is 800x1000 yet the logo is much smaller than this.. when i save the layers which are put as visible from the layer window I get an image file which is 800 by 1000 in size and just the logo up the top.. below it is just blank see through nothingness but it is acting as if the image is there.
Kinda like:
|----logo-----|
blank
blank
blank
blank
|end of image|
I want it to just be only:
|---logo----|
And nothing else. Is there a way to save just certain layers from the layers window?
I am working on a web image, and at the moment the image is finished, only it has a black background. Is there a way I can make it clear so that only the image shows up, wrather than the image and its background? The entire image is 1 layer right now, so the only way I know of to isolate the black is to use the magic wand tool,
This is the image, but the webpage has a grey background and so having that black boardering it really makes it look weird.
creating text with a clear background. I need to be able to create text and then apply effects (emboss, diffuse, etc) and then save it as a gif or png with a clear background. Every time I try to emboss text it automatically changes the background of the entire image to the same solid color as the text.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to take pictures of some jewelry that i have so that i can put them on my website. I want to be able to have the image with a white background and show the shadows of the object, see the attached image for example. How do i go about creating such an image? I looked at other posts on removing backgrounds but these techniques were either too long, given the fact that i have over 100 items to work on, or didn't produce the "shadow" effect that i was looking for.
The first two images are what i'm looking for. The thrid is how one of my items currently looks like. I also tried taking pictures with a clear white or blue background but didn't know an effective way of removing the background.
I've been using Photoshop 7 for years and have some .png graphic elements with clear backgrounds, which I use to make cover photos for a Facebook page. When I open these graphic files with paint.net I expect to see two layers - one for the clear background and one for the graphic itself, but instead I see just one layer. If I then open a photo and try to paste the graphic overlay on top of it the clear background doesn't work, the checkerboard pattern is displayed instead.
is there a simple way to make these files work as they used to in Photoshop, i.e without going to the trouble of masking things off and clearing backgrounds all over again? Can they be opened in paint.net with the see-through background fully functional from the off?
I did put a real photo in the background of my website to fit entire page. So the text of my webpage is black, and sometimes other colors. So what happen is that some times the text is hard to read when it come on top of dark places of the photo (for example hear of people). So i want to adapt the photo to make it more unicolor, more whiten (increase whiteness) so the black text will appear even better.
What tools and filters in gimp that give me this ability to do that ?

how to make the colors of a photo be more clear and concentrated
View 5 Replies View RelatedWhen I use the Cut or Clear function with a graphic design I can punch a hole right through a layer or layers. But with a jpeg photo and duplicate layers all I get is that the selected area turns opaque white. There are work arounds, but it would be simpler to be able to turn a selected area transparent. So what gives? Running Windows 7.
